Be it known that I, CHARLES A. IE.

' This invention relates to a compound which is composed of, an extract of water-creases, and of an extract ofhorse-radish, both extracts being-made with white Californiawine, and which has proved to be a valnableand effective remedy against all consumptive diseases.

The extracts which I use'in making my compound are prepared as follows: I take water-cresses and horse radish, each in a separate vessel, pound and crush the some well byany suitable means, and then add white California wine in the following proportions: Water-cresses, one pound wine, four pounds and horse-radish, one pound; wine, ten'pounds.

By the heat and pressure, all, the available parts contained in the watercrosses and in the horse-radish are extraeted,and intimately combined with the wine. After the vessels have i been removed from the oven, they are left to cool, and the sol-id par-ts contained in the liquids are removed'by filtering. The clear liquid extracts thus obtained are then mixed in-the following proportion: Extract of watercreases, two parts; extract of horse-radish, one part; and the'componnd is ready for use. i v
